The Scroll of the Roaring Legion Chapter 271: Chen Qingzhi's Extremely Strong Military Formation (Please Ask for a Monthly Pass)



In fact, from six hundred years ago, in the pre-Qin era, this weapon was the master of the battlefield, and when the old Han Dynasty, under the efforts of the three generations of emperors of the previous dynasty, Emperor Wen, Emperor Jing, and Emperor Wu, established a cavalry that could confront the Huns who dominated the grassland at that time, the crossbow was still the master of the battlefield, and the regular tactics of the Han army's iron cavalry were after encountering the enemy. Kill the enemy with a strong crossbow until 40% of the enemy is killed before the charge is launched. And after the founding of the Great Qin, the crossbow, the strongest weapon in the era of cold weapons, was brought into full play.

In the face of the continuous casualties of his subordinates, Kufu, who is a general, has no way to do it, and the light infantry under his command is named Yaksha because of its light and swift fierceness, but in the face of the almost invincible cold weapon of the Great Qin crossbow, in addition to the heavy cavalry can barely do the impact, his light infantry goes up, just to send it to death, in fact, to deal with the crossbow array of the Great Qin, in addition to using human lives to consume the arrows, it is almost unbreakable.

Changed to an ordinary general commanding light infantry such as Yasha, when facing Chen Qingzhi's crossbow array, he would definitely rely on the strength of the soldiers and use his human lives to consume the arrows of the crossbow array, but Kufu did not, after seeing the almost nightmarish strong onslaught of Ran Min and Modao hoplites, he already understood that the heavy infantry of Daqin in front of him was not something that he and Yaksha could shake, and the entire Guishan may only be able to fight with the hoplites who were named Asura among the eight tribes.

"Archer prepare!" Seeing that the opposing Great Qin General had reduced the strength of the crossbow array, and instead sent nearly a thousand hoplites to charge into the formation, Kufu's face became solemn, and he knew that he was about to face that powerful heavy infantry assault again. Only this time he couldn't retreat. If the Chinese army loses and Princess Lianjia has an accident, he can only judge himself to apologize.

"Put!" In fact, if you want to break the Great Qin Crossbow Formation, you only need to have a long-range cold weapon with a longer range and more powerful than the Great Qin Crossbow, but unfortunately, since the Great Qin Expedition to the West one hundred and fifty years ago. Although the countries of the world have learned the method of making crossbows through various methods, compared with the powerful crossbows of Great Qin, the range power is far inferior, and it has always been at a disadvantage in long-range attacks, achieving the name of Qin's crossbow peerless.

I saw that the opponent's formation began to shoot in rotation. Chen Qingzhi waved his big hand, and the whole army began to press. The crossbow array continued to pour arrows as it moved forward slowly, relying on the distance of nearly half the range of the Kushans, and Chen Qingzhi used the crossbow array to force the archers of the Kushans to retreat to the rear, thus reducing the distance faced by the 1,000 hoplites after entering the firing range by more than half.

"My lord, why don't you attack from both flanks. The Qin people's ground crossbow array had abandoned their positions. "The lieutenant general next to Kufu. Looking at the crossbow array that was pressing towards him, he said with red eyes, the taste of being completely suppressed all the time made him feel full of shame.

"Do you think we can resist the strong crossbows of the Qin people?" Kufu glanced at the lieutenant general beside him. With a bitter face, "The enemy general let the crossbow formation press forward, which is to lure us to attack them from both flanks, so as to mobilize our formation and launch a charge. ”

"Then we can't do anything." The voice of the deputy general from the royal family dimmed, Daqin has not used swords for more than 30 years, and Guishan has also enjoyed peace for more than 30 years, they have always been proud of the elite of Guishan, and they have always been dissatisfied with the invincible name of the Great Qin Legion, but the painful lesson of today's encounter is that they will never forget.

"It's not like you can't do nothing!" Seeing that the deputy general was frustrated, Ku Fu raised his eyebrows and said in a deep voice, "We were defeated by the heavy infantry of the Great Qin Land before, but we gathered in a hurry, and the army formation was not strictly breached. Having said that, Ku Fu still didn't know the bottom in his heart, because he didn't know if a Great Qin army would come out at any time nearby, so he couldn't mobilize all his forces to fight against the Great Qin heavy infantry in front of him.

The adjutant general is not a foolish person, seeing that Kufu's last sentence is not very angry, he knows that in fact, his own general is not sure, but he can't be blamed for all this, who calls himself light infantry, he is not the opponent of the heavy infantry, not to mention that they have to defend the Chinese army camp behind them, completely losing the only advantage of the light infantry over the heavy infantry, and only relying on the number of far more opponents to drag them to death.

The advancing Mosagar hoplites suffered only a few dozen casualties under a short rain of arrows, and then plunged headlong into the Kushan light infantry and began a one-sided slaughter, although the infantry of the Yakshas, who were not afraid of death, and the scimitars in their hands were made of the finest Damascus steel

Facing the heavily armored Great Qin Mo swordsmen, their sharp scimitars could only be in a few knife marks, and few people with amazing courage could inflict damage on the Great Qin Mo swordsmen with the scimitars in their hands, but relying on the advantage in numbers and the tight military formation, they resisted the advance of the Mo swordsmen, and only then did the strong archers behind the military formation carry out accurate shots at close range and cause casualties to the Mo swordsmen.

"It's not mediocre." Seeing the military formation of the Guishan people, Chen Qingzhi sneered, and then ordered the soldiers to blow the horn of attack, and then pressed forward the crossbow formation, immediately stopped the shooting of the strong crossbow, but took out the Mo knife, lined up in a neat military formation, and rushed towards the Guishan people in front.

Finally, the three thousand Mo knife hoplites under Chen Qingzhi's command attacked the opponent in an all-round way, although this kind of onslaught was not his usual combat style, but when he encountered the opponent's stubborn strategy that was as hard as a turtle shell, Chen Qingzhi had no other way to take advantage of it, but to win by force.

"The so-called famous generals, sure enough, can only be fooled when facing mediocre generals!" Seeing the stalemate in front of him, Chen Qingzhi couldn't help but say to himself, he remembered the Battle of Changping at the end of the Warring States Period, when the killing god Bai Qi faced Lian Po's stubbornness, he was also at a loss, and finally relied on the counter-plot to transfer this veteran and replace him with Zhao Kuo, so he won the victory on the battlefield.

Although Chen Qingzhi did not like this method of force fighting, he was by no means good at force fighting, and under his series of orders, the all-out onslaught Modao hoplites formed a pointed cone-shaped formation, crushing the thick defense of the Kushan light infantry formation.

Looking at the approaching Da Qin Mo swordsman, Ku Fu's face became pale, and the command of the Great Qin general against him was simply superb, always maintaining the strength of the cone in his own bereak formation, and the cooperation of those Great Qin hoplites could also be called seamless, the entire cone formation has been constantly changing the cone, always chiseling through the front with the strongest offensive, and he can only passively transfer troops from both wings to fill it.

Seeing that the Chinese army camp of the Kushan people was not far away, Chen Qingzhi's eyes flashed a cold light, the prototype of his cone formation was the car suspension formation created by the old Han Dynasty Chao Huo Qubing according to the infantry assault formation, this kind of cone formation is much more domineering than the assault, but it is not like the assault which swarms up to carry out onslaught, but pays more attention to the interval between the armies, in order to make effective changes, so that the cone as the forward attack always maintains the strongest attack, but although this formation is incomparable, it has extremely high requirements for the generals in command, At present, he is the only one who can use this cone formation in the infantry army of the Jinling Metropolitan Protectorate, but he has never used it much, and this time he has taken out his housekeeping skills in the formation.

"My lord, ask Your Highness for help!" Beside Ku Fu, the deputy general looked at the Great Qin heavy infantry raging in his own army array, and said to the main general with a pale face, in his eyes, even the most combative Asura tribe of the eight tribes could not resist this kind of sharp and powerful attack in front of him.

"Can't call for help." Kufu gritted his teeth, almost categorically, although he didn't know the situation in the front camp, but from the strength of these Great Qin heavy infantry, he could see that the second prince must be stalemate with the enemy, if he went to ask for help at this time, it would definitely distract the second prince, if he was defeated because of this, I am afraid that the entire battle situation would collapse.

"Send someone to General Darongjia and ask his cavalry to come back to help." Kufu made a decision immediately, although he knew that Garuda's light cavalry was also likely to fall into a trap, but at this time he had to ask them for help.

After sending troops for help, Kufu took his own soldiers into the battlefield, at this time he had to take the lead to boost morale, hoping to desperately resist the advance of the Great Qin heavy infantry in front of him, even if he was killed in battle, he admitted it. After he personally participated in the battle, the light infantry of the Yaksha people was obviously demoralized, and they actually relied on a crazy hard work to delay the advance of Chen Qingzhi's cone formation.

Seeing that the enemy general came out with his own soldiers, Chen Qingzhi couldn't help frowning, if he had replaced Ran Min or Li Ang at this time, I am afraid that he would have personally killed him, but Chen Qingzhi has never liked to fight against people on the battlefield, in his eyes, commanding the whole army is what a general should do.

"Bring me the crossbow." Chen Qingzhi looked at the pro-soldier beside him, but his order made the pro-soldier stunned, but soon the pro-soldier understood that his own general was going to yin the Guishuang general, which was in line with his own general's consistent style.

"I should have gotten a sniper crossbow if I knew I could." After receiving the strong crossbow that had been wound, Chen Qingzhi fiddled with the Wangshan for aiming above, but he thought of the sniper crossbow installed by the broken army guards around Li Ang, and couldn't help muttering to himself.
